Hello, friends. This is Against Everyone with Connor Habib. Here is the third episode in a series that I'm doing on occult and esoteric Christianity, which is an evolving tradition that offers vitalizing insight into how to move forward. Across these episodes, I'll be talking about various streams and fruits of occult and esoteric Christianity as well,

0:21.1

some of its key figures. Rather than presenting the typically dogmatic, dominating, and totalizing

0:27.6

Christianity, which is always in danger being seized by people, especially conservatives with power,

0:33.8

this series will present a different and truer form, open, wounded, individuated, and powerless,

there is a powerful spiritual movement in Bulgaria headed by a great spiritual initiate.

1:54.0

But Peter Dunev's teachings are not like Rudolf Steiner's.

1:59.3

They might have the same aims, but Steiner's path, Anthroposophy,

2:04.7

which you probably know if you listen to the show, because I mention it all the time,

2:08.6

that's a more intellectual path. And it is necessary to have an intellectual path. And the fruits of

2:14.1

that path, like biodynamic farming and Waldorf schools and so on and so forth,
